A Paranormal Cozy Mystery Series:

Twenty-four-year old Vivien Belcher–Ms. B, for obvious reasons–teaches a full class of kindergarten students in Southwest Michigan in a Lake Michigan beach town. Trying to maintain control of her overly enthusiastic students while managing life as a fully-fledged adult, Vivien’s life is balancing as perfectly as a gymnast sticking her landing until the scale tips when she receives an unlikely and unwelcome text message from her ex-boyfriend…her dead ex-boyfriend.

Trapped in the Transitional World and having to atone for his many sins in life, Kasper must “make good” by helping to solve the murder of his beloved high school lunch lady. The problem? It’s hard to solve a murder as a ghost. But Kasper doesn’t count on Vivien’s reluctance to help him, not to mention her doubt. And he really doesn’t count on his reaction to Vivien moving on with relationships in her life that don’t include him.

What ensues is hilarity and frustration as Kasper’s time is running out to convince Vivien to help him. Being a ghost is hard. But so is being a new teacher.

Character Post

Hi. My name is Vivien Belcher. The kids in my kindergarten class call me Ms. B, for obvious reasons. I’m in my second year of teaching. Teaching is H-A-R-D! I love it, though. I guess you could say that teaching is my passion. Things are interesting this year. Yesterday I had to interrogate my students after we found the fish in our fishtank floating belly up. I’m an excellent interviewer, though, and before long I had figured out the culprit. All of my sleuthing skills come from my experience working with five and six-year-old children. Ask the right questions and be persistent, and you can figure most anything out.

Those skills come in handy now that I’m having to do a favor for my jerk of an ex-boyfriend solving a murder mystery that to everyone else looks like a simple heart attack of an elderly woman. This elderly woman just happens to be the old lunch lady at my high school who hated me and most everyone, for that matter, except for my then-boyfriend Kasper. Mrs. Green had a thing for the troubled kids.

As if my days aren’t hard enough, out of the blue I got a text message on my old phone. It wasn’t any old text message, either. It was Kasper. Hearing from the jerk after five years would have been bad enough. But, the real kicker is this: Kasper’s been dead for years. Now he’s contacting me and asking me to help him solve Mrs. Green’s murder so that he can say he did something good and be freed from the Transitional World where he’s been stuck. I don’t want to help him. But he’s messing with my life and interfering in my relationships, especially with our school librarian Zeb Malone. The only way to get Kasper out of my life for good is to solve this mystery. Why must my life be so complicated?
